I got my book!!!

I got my book!

It’s funny, really, just how excited I am that I got the email notice from the library yesterday that the book I had reserved was in and ready for pick up. I actually found myself singing all the way to the library a little ditty that went something like this:

“I got my book! I got my book! I got my book today!”

Yeah, it wasn’t exactly a creative tune, and it was somewhat repetitive, but, dude, I got my book!

Now it sits next to me, calling out my name. I am looking forward to lunch time so I can read. When I get home, I will read. Sadly, I discovered that this isn’t the last book in the series, with the actual final one coming out next year, which means I will have to wait. I really hate waiting.

The book, you ask? Well, as much as I should be embarrassed at the series, I am gonna just own it. I am reading this series of YA vampire books. Not Twilight, but in all fairness I read those, too. These are significantly better, and truly, I am enjoying the crap out of them. They are super angsty, but in a much more interesting way than just some teen novels. Plus, drunk vampires, crazy anti-vampire groups, and some half breeds with serious issues. It is all kinds of wonderful.

I tried to read some last night before bed, but sadly I was just too tired and a little after nine I called it a night and crashed out.

The boys have practice tonight, so I will have an additional hour or so to read. Woo hoo!

It is a valuable time for me since the rest of the weekend looks to be nuts. Tomorrow night is the Hoedown at the school, and Saturday has soccer game, soccer drawing, and a birthday party for a soccer team member. I think Sunday is less hectic for me in the morning, what with Ken reffing games, but we then have a pool to finish taking down along with some boxes to put away.

I am taking the dispute resolution class for the region next Tuesday night. I figure it should be fun, even if it is a late night. I am trying to be involved in a better capacity with the region. I even managed to get a new fundraiser for the region yesterday due to my friends and contacts on Facebook. I may help Coach Lou this next season with fundraising efforts in the idea of being behind the scenes and helping him while he is the awesome negotiator that he is. It helps that Lou knows that I am good people.
